Fire exit doors — what an inspector is actually checking
A fire exit door has three jobs, and an inspector checks all three. It must open from the inside under a single motion with no key, tool or special knowledge. It must self-close fully under its own closer from any open position. And it must positively latch when it closes, because a fire-rated door that does not latch does not hold back smoke or fire. A door that fails any one of those is a deficiency.
In practice, most of the deficiencies we are called to fix are small and cheap in isolation and expensive as a group: a closer that no longer pulls the door the last few inches, a latch that catches on a moved keeper, a panic bar that has stiffened, or a frame that has racked far enough that the door rests instead of latching. All of it is fixable, usually in one visit.
What fire exit door service covers
Panic bars & exit devices
Rim, mortise and vertical rod devices serviced, adjusted or replaced with fire-code compliant hardware.
Door closers
Overhead and concealed closers adjusted or replaced so the door closes fully and latches positively.
Self-closing hinges
Spring hinges replaced where the opening relies on them instead of an overhead closer.
Positive latching
Strikes and keepers realigned and replaced so the latch engages every time the door closes.
Fire-rated frames
Racked, levered or rusted hollow metal frames straightened, sectioned or repaired.
Signage & hardware compliance
Exit hardware, lever trim and outside access hardware fitted to suit how the door is actually used.
The fire exit deficiencies we are called out to fix
The panic bar needs two motions or a shove
Seized, worn or badly adjusted exit device. Code requires a single motion to exit. We service or replace the device with fire-code compliant hardware and reset the latching.
The door does not close the last few inches
The closer has lost its latching speed or back-check. A door that rests against the frame instead of latching provides no fire separation. We adjust or replace the closer.
The door does not latch when it closes
The keeper or strike has moved, or the frame has racked. We realign the frame and reposition the strike so the latch engages positively every time.
Someone has propped or chained the exit
Usually because the door is hard to use or the area is misused. We fix the underlying door problem, and where security is the concern we fit compliant delayed-egress or alarmed hardware instead of a chain.
The self-closing hinges have failed
Spring hinges lose tension. On openings that rely on them rather than an overhead closer, we replace them so the door closes fully on its own.
The frame has racked or rusted
Common on rear exits. We straighten or section the frame and repair rusted bases so the fire-rated assembly works as intended.

- We arrive and diagnoseSame-day across most of the GTA. The technician inspects the door, frame, hinges and hardware and finds the actual cause rather than the symptom.
- You get a fixed priceUpfront, in writing, before anything is touched. No commission, no surprise line items at the end.

Fire Exit Door Service for businesses
Fire exit work is almost always driven by one of two things: an inspection that has flagged deficiencies, or a door that has become genuinely hard to use and is being propped as a result. Both are worth fixing before they become a fine or an incident.
Related work includes steel door repair, commercial door closer replacement, panic bar installation, door frame repair, commercial door repair and scheduled commercial door maintenance.
Do the walk-through before the inspector does
Walk every exit in the building and try it exactly as someone would in an emergency: one push, no key, no shoulder. Then let it go and watch whether it closes fully and latches on its own. Anything that fails either test is a deficiency, and it is far cheaper to find it yourself than to have it written up.

Fire Exit Door Service — frequently asked questions
How fast can you get to me?
Most GTA calls are same-day and emergencies get priority dispatch 24/7. Call 647-951-3510 and we will give you a real arrival window.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free and the price is confirmed in writing before any work starts.
Can we lock our fire exit for security?
Not with a chain or a padlock. Where security is a genuine concern the compliant options are alarmed exit devices or delayed egress hardware, both of which we can fit.
What does positive latching mean?
The latch has to actually engage the strike when the door closes. A door that rests against the frame is not latched and gives no fire separation, even if it looks shut.
Can you check every exit in our building in one visit?
Yes. For multi-door sites we do a full walk-through, list the deficiencies and quote them together rather than charging a call-out per door.
Do you carry the parts with you?
Yes. Our trucks stock rollers, closers, pivots, strikes, hinges, weatherstripping, cylinders and locks, which is why most jobs finish on the first visit.
Is the work warrantied?
Every job carries a warranty on labour and on the parts we supply, written on your invoice.
Which payment methods do you accept?
Cash, debit, e-transfer and all major credit cards. Businesses can be invoiced.
